In Kind was a research project by visual artists Janie Nicoll and Ailie Rutherford, which mapped the hidden economies of Glasgow International and the ‘below the water-line’ economy of the arts.

Using visual mapping techniques developed by Rutherford through her work on The People’s Bank of Govanhill, as well as Nicoll’s experience of participatory and large-scale curatorial projects, their information booth gathered and displayed data that exposes this outpouring of creative energy that normally would go unseen.
